A place skilled in dual canthoplasty: what to check when looking into one
Recently, interest in appearance has been increasing,
and more people are investing
both time and money in taking care of their appearance.
When it comes to improving one’s appearance, the area many people
look into first is the eyes.
Depending on the double-eyelid line and the size of the eyes, the overall image can change,
and the eyes play an important role in determining the first impression.
Even a small change to the eyes can make one’s impression look different,
and even for those who already have a double-eyelid line, if they want clearer, more open-looking eyes,
they may look for a place skilled in dual canthoplasty.
For those who usually have eyes that look heavy or closed-off,
or those whose outer eye corners are raised and give a sharp impression,
let’s take a closer look at dual canthoplasty, which can help create a more open, gentle-looking image.
Canthoplasty procedures include epicanthoplasty, lateral canthoplasty, lower canthoplasty, and dual canthoplasty.
Dual canthoplasty combines lateral canthoplasty and lower canthoplasty
as a solution that can help improve the eyes into a more open and gentle-looking shape.
Undergoing the procedure simply because you want larger, more open-looking eyes
may lead to a result that differs from what you had hoped for,
so it is important to make a careful decision and proceed with the look you want as your goal.
Then, shall we look at how canthoplasty can improve the eyes?
1. Lower canthoplasty
Hyundai Aesthetic Surgery’s lower canthoplasty targets the lower eyelid at the outer one-third of the lid margin, below the outer part of the iris,
and lowers the lower eyelid, aiming for a softer eye shape.
Depending on each individual’s eye condition, it can lengthen the horizontal width of the eyes and lower the outer eye corners to make the eye slant
gentler, so a softer and kinder-looking eye shape can be expected.
Cases that may require lower canthoplasty
- When the outer eye corners are raised, making the impression look fierce
- When the vertical width above and below the iris is short
- When the horizontal width of the eyes is narrow, making them look closed-off
- When satisfaction was not achieved even after epicanthoplasty or lateral canthoplasty
- When the eyes appear too close together after epicanthoplasty
Lower canthoplasty is a procedure that increases the vertical length of the eyes to make them appear larger, aiming to turn a heavy and closed-off
eye shape into open, larger, and clearer-looking eyes while increasing pupil exposure,
and a softer overall image can be expected.
2. Lateral canthoplasty
Hyundai Aesthetic Surgery’s adhesion-prevention lateral canthoplasty is performed when the horizontal length of the eyes is short and the outer corners are slightly raised.
It is a canthoplasty procedure that opens the blocked-looking outer eye corner through an incision and fixes it to the outer periosteum,
aiming to expand the horizontal length of the eyes.
By using dissolvable sutures to stitch inside the eyelid, it also aims to make the return to daily life less of a burden.
When adhesion-prevention lateral canthoplasty is needed
- When the eyes appear to be set too close together
- When the outer corners of the eyes are lifted, making the impression look strong
- When you have had lateral canthoplasty, but the area has closed back up again
- When the horizontal width of the eyes is narrow, making them look closed-off
- When you want larger, more open-looking eyes
When the lifted outer corners of the eyes make the impression look sharp, opening the outer corners aims for a gentler look
and a kinder, softer impression. Because the outer corners of the eyes are extended outward,
the horizontal length of the eyes also appears longer, so a longer, more open eye shape can be expected.
3. Dual Canthoplasty
Hyundai Aesthetic Surgery’s dual canthoplasty increases both the horizontal and vertical dimensions of the eyes at the same time, creating larger, more open-looking eyes.
As an eye surgery meant to give sharp and intense eyes a gentler impression, it uses canthoplasty
with the aim of a softer, more refreshed look.
Candidates for Dual Canthoplasty
- When the distance between the brows is narrow and the eyes appear close together
- When the horizontal width of the eyes is narrow, making the eyes look closed-in
- When epicanthoplasty is not possible because the eyes are close together
- When epicanthoplasty did not produce the desired effect
- When the outer eye corners are raised, making the impression look fierce
4. Epicanthoplasty
Hyundai Aesthetic Surgery’s epicanthoplasty differs from conventional epicanthoplasty by using an inner incision, so scars are
less of a burden. In addition, it makes a minimal incision in the upper eyelid and releases the Mongolian fold, widening not only the horizontal
but also the vertical dimension of the eyes, aiming for larger, more open-looking eyes.
Because swelling and the scar burden are relatively low, returning to daily life tends to be less of a burden, and a closed-in and sharp impression
can be expected to become more open and gentle.
When Scar-Minimizing Epicanthoplasty Is Needed
- When the horizontal width of the eyes is narrow
- When the Mongolian fold makes the space between the eyes look wide
- When the front part of the eyes slopes down sharply, making the impression look sharp
- When you want a more open eye shape by combining it with double-eyelid surgery
- When you want epicanthoplasty with a reduced scar burden
This surgical method is meant to make up for the scar burden of conventional epicanthoplasty by making an incision on the inner front part of the eye
and suturing from the inside, so the scar burden tends to be lower, while lengthening the horizontal dimension of the eyes,
and a more open, softer eye shape and impression can be expected.
